Brickendon Farm Village

Brickendon is one of Tasmania's oldest farming properties, settled in 1824 by William Archer. The farm has been continuously operated and lived on by his direct descendants, now in their 7th generation.

In July 2010, Brickendon Estate along with its neighbouring property, Woolmers Estate were listed jointly as a World Heritage Site being part of the Australian Convict Sites World Heritage Property.

If you have any connection with the early history of Australia, be it a convict ancestor, farm worker, tradesman or free settler - Brickendon along with Woolmers offers an extraordinary opportunity to discover and connect with your past.
